FLOOR PROTECTION 
This appliance requires non-combustible floor protector for 
ember protection. If the floor protection is to be stone, tile, 
brick, etc., it must be mortared or grouted to form a continuous 
non-combustible surface.  If a chimney connector extends 
horizontally over the floor, protection must cover the floor un-
der the connector and at least 2" (51 mm) to either side. 
 
The floor protection must extend completely beneath the 
stove and to the front, sides, and rear as indicated:

SELECTING A LOCATION 

The design of your home and where you place your 

stove will determine its value as a source of heat. A 

wood stove depends primarily on air circulation (con-

vection) to disperse its heat, and therefore, a central 

location is often best. There are other practical consid-

erations, which must be considered before a final selec-

tion of locations is made. 

♦  Existing Chimneys 

♦  Wood Storage 

♦  Aesthetic Considerations 

♦  Roof Design (Rafter Locations & Roof Pitch) 

♦   Room Traffic 

♦  Proximity to Combustibles 

♦   Electrical Wiring 

The installation of this stove will require some research. 

Once your options are determined, consult with your 

local building department who will be able to give you 

the necessary installation requirements for your area (Is 

a building permit required, Rooms where installation 

may not be allowed, etc.).  

 
WARNING:  CHECK ALL LOCAL BUILDING AND 

MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY. 
 

If you plan to vent your stove into an existing masonry 

chimney, have it inspected by a local fire marshal or 

qualified installer. Remember that a stove's perform-

ance is heavily influenced by the chimney and its loca-

tion on the roof. An oversized flue may not provide ef-

fective draw, and a flue liner may be required (see Draft 

Requirements  on page 10). Consult your dealer or 

qualified installer before final selection is made. 

 

This stove requires pre-installation work to be com-

pleted before installation can take place. This will in-

clude the preparation of the floor and appropriate 

hearth pad for acceptance of outside air (if applicable), 

and for modification for flue and chimney.
